LIV Golf Star Beats Scottie Scheffler Before US Open
LIV Golf Star Beats Scottie Scheffler Before US Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Scottie Scheffler may be the hottest golfer on the planet right now, but when it comes to earnings, the crown goes to LIV Golf's Jon Rahm. The latest report suggests Rahm has beaten Scheffler heading into the U.S. Open, at least on the money list. Advertisement Scottie has been putting on one of the greatest performances in the PGA Tour and majors. He has won three out of 12 events, including the 2025 PGA Championship. The 28-year-old has yet to miss a cut this season. But when it comes to becoming the highest-paid golfer in the world, Scheffler unfortunately lost that crown to the Spaniard Rahm. According to Forbes' latest report of the world's highest-paid golfers, Rahm's reported earnings stand at $102 million. He collected only $10 million of it from off-course earnings courtesy of endorsement deals with Callaway, Rolex and Santander Bank. However, the rest of Rahm's astonishing $92 million comes from his on-course earnings through LIV Golf and majors. Jon Rahm stands atop the list of highest-paid pro golfers.© Geoff Burke-Imagn Images In his debut season with LIV Golf last year, Rahm won the tour's individual title, which earned him an additional $18 million bonus. He has yet to win an event this year. Meanwhile, Scheffler, the world's second-highest-paid golfer, has earned $97 million. He made $67 million from on-course earnings while the rest came from off the course. Advertisement Scheffler has endorsement deals with Nike, TaylorMade, Rolex and Veritex Community Bank. The three-time major winner has already accumulated $86 million in career earnings, behind only Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Phil Mickelson in PGA Tour's all-time list. Scheffler also won the Memorial Tournament leading up to the U.S. Open. Though he may have lost the money battle to Rahm, Scheffler will look to balance things out by trying to win his maiden U.S. Open. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 11, 2025, where it first appeared.

2025 U.S. Open: Complete Record-Matching $21.5M Prize Purse by Place
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. While speaking on the eve of the 125th U.S. Open, United States Golf Association (USGA) CEO Mike Whan officially revealed that the event's purse will be $21.5 million, with $4.3 million going to the winner. This is the same amount allocated for the 2024 edition, tying the record for the largest purse distributed at any major championship in history. "Our purse is $21.5 million. Winner's check is $4.3 [million]. We didn't raise our purse this year," Whan said. "When I started at the USGA just four years ago, our purse was $12.5 [million], so I feel comfortable that we've been a leader in moving fast and bigger."

Aller/Getty Images As for the winner's paycheck, it ranks as the second-highest for an individual professional golf event, behind only the $4.5 million awarded to the winner of the PGA Tour's PLAYERS Championship. It's certainly come a long way since the $150 Horace Rawlins received for winning the event's foundational edition in 1895. The US Open winner's paycheck reached $1,000 for the first time in 1929, but the winner was the legendary Bobby Jones, who didn't collect the prize money because he played as an amateur. The $10,000 barrier was broken in 1959, when Billy Casper received $12,000 for his victory. Just 26 years later, the $100,000 barrier was surpassed, as Andy North received $103,000 when he won in 1985. It couldn't be anyone but Tiger Woods who was the first to receive $1 million for winning the US Open, which he did with his epic victory in 2000. US Open prize money payout This is how the 2025 US Open purse will be distributed. The amounts may vary depending on ties: 1 $4,300,000 2 $2,322,000 3 $1,445,062 4 $1,013,040 5 $843,765 6 $748,154 7 $674,491 8 $604,086 9 $546,720 10 $502,174 11 $458,280 12 $423,729 13 $394,829 14 $364,407 15 $338,332 16 $316,602 17 $299,218 18 $281,834 19 $264,450 20 $247,067 21 $232,073 22 $217,080 23 $202,521 24 $189,048 25 $177,314 26 $167,319 27 $159,713 28 $152,977 29 $146,458 30 $139,939 31 $133,420 32 $126,901 33 $120,382 34 $114,515 35 $109,735 36 $104,954 37 $100,391 38 $96,045 39 $91,699 40 $87,353 41 $83,007 42 $78,661 43 $74,315 44 $69,969 45 $65,623 46 $61,712 47 $57,801 48 $54,107 49 $51,934 50 $49,761 51 $48,457 52 $47,370 53 $46,501 54 $46,067 55 $45,632 56 $45,197 57 $44,763 58 $44,328 59 $43,894 60 $43,459 61 $43,024 62 $42,590 63 $42,155 64 $41,721 65 $41,286 66 $40,851 67 $40,417 68 $39,982 69 $39,548 70 $39,113 More Golf: Scottie Scheffler reveals Venmo payments from fans, requests for cash

Collin Morikawa Shows Stones with Bold U.S. Open Proclamation
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The 2025 U.S. Open is less than 24 hours away from teeing off at Oakmont Country Club, which has a reputation for being one of the most difficult golf courses in the world. The track demands precision, patience, and mental grit at all times. Even Tiger Woods recently chimed in, warning players about the challenges they're about to face. "It's about missing the ball on correct spots... because if you don't, it's horrible," he expressed on Tuesday. But Collin Morikawa seems to be more than excited for the challenge. This year, as Oakmont prepares to challenge the world's best, several PGA Tour pros were asked a straightforward question: "Would you take even par at Oakmont this week?" Among those answering were Sepp Straka, Patrick Cantlay, Keegan Bradley, Adam Scott, Viktor Hovland, Corey Conners, and Morikawa. Knowing what's ahead, nearly every single golfer agreed taking even par would be prudent. But not Morikawa. Would you take even par at Oakmont this week? 🤔 TOUR players weigh in. — Golfbet (@Golfbet) June 10, 2025 When asked directly, the 2-time major champion responded, "Take my chances," choosing to test himself rather than settling for even par. It was a confident answer, but one that raises eyebrows considering his recent form. Collin Morikawa Looks to Regain Form at U.S. Open Though Morikawa has three top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour this year, it is hard to ignore that his last win came back at the 2023 ZOZO Championship. But since then, he has struggled to find the winner's circle. This will be his seventh U.S. Open, and while he's had success in majors, one typically wants to be in form entering the tournament.

(Photo by) MoreAfter watching Russell Henley steal the Arnold Palmer Invitational from him on that fateful Sunday, his results have been all over the place. He finished tied for 14th at the Masters, but could not break the top 50 at the RBC Heritage and PGA Championship. However, there is something to say for confidence. Morikawa is clearly not lacking in that department, but some fans see something else. Fans gave Morikawa a reality check As the post went viral, netizens were quick to react. Fans wasted no time poking fun at his response, with one bluntly commenting: "And... Morikawa misses the cut." Another added, "Morikawa stupid a** isn't even going to make the cut lol. And he was the only cocky answer in here." Some even flooded the comment section with GIFs to mock his optimism. Collin preparing to take on Oakmont — Bruce Berry (@halliesberries) June 10, 2025 "Tough to make the cut," one fan posted, offering a reality check to all the golfers teeing up this week. What is your opinion? Will Morikawa prove his critics wrong or will Oakmont deliver the lesson so many expect? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
